Course Goals/Description: This discussion based course will use a
photovoice technique to bring awareness to issues currently facing
undergraduate students. Students will become versed in the
theoretical and practical applications of the photovoice technique
through exploring topics selected by course participants. Each week,
students will take and submit photos representative of issues
affecting their own lives with the intent to initiate dialogue both
within and outside the classroom. The class final project will
consist of an art show at a local coffee shop displaying the work of
the students. While not mandatory, access to a camera (preferably
digital) is highly suggested for this course.
